Masuk~XANDER~
I left the party because I wasn't feeling it. Halfway to the door, I had already decided it was a bad idea to join Ace and my foster brother, Andy, for an evening out. I wasn't in the mood to party or frolick with any girl tonight. "Come on, Xander. A little unwinding won't hurt." Ace, my personal assistant, and a friend had chanted to my ears before dragging me from the office to the hotel. A couple of minutes in— watching him, Andy and the other guys joke over drinks and women rocking them unabashedly, I decided this wasn't my scene tonight, surprisingly. I'd quietly slipped out when they got distracted and was happy that I would be making it to my condominium without interruption when I crashed into her. The 'her' that assaulted my lips and straddled me with the notion of having wild sex. It was obvious that she was a little tipsy— if not drunk— and I wasn't supposed to entertain any advances she made towards me after rejecting a ton at the party, but there was this certain pull to this young girl. It was more like a magnet. The push to give her the wild sex she desired. It wouldn't be my first time having a one-night stand. Heck, I didn't do relationships because I didn't want any lady to be used as bait by my enemies to lure me out. "She's just another girl among your sea of conquests." That was what I kept telling myself as I rammed into her with great force— from different angles— watching her screaming and coming apart for the second time that night. I gave a lady double orgasms in a row! And multiple sensations pulled towards my lower region begging to be released, but I wasn't done yet. "Still want me to be gentle?" I asked, my voice a rough coarse. Her breath was ragged and her body was still buckling from another high-ride orgasm. I expected her to plead for mercy. Instead, she shook her head. "Harder!" She rasped, and my body shook at the direct impact of her husky voice. I tried to shut off any form of feeling as I usually did with others. But watching her looking so gorgeous and spent, a certain feeling I couldn't describe swirled within me, but I pushed it aside as I increased my pace, slamming the headboard into the wall and watching her gasp, sigh, scream, tug on the sheets and the flesh of my ass. The sensation down below built up to the point that I couldn't ignore it anymore. With her third loud cry and her body buckling against me, my ejaculation spilled out, causing a loud groan to escape from my throat. I collapsed on top of her to gather my breath, but when I caught myself and realized our intimate position, I tried to get up, but she circled tightly against me. "No! Let's stay like this please." Her body was vibrating and her sensuous, dewy, pale green eyes flashed at me innocently, increasing my heartbeat a notch. I tore my gaze away, deciding that this was too intimate for a one-night stand. Her body felt so small against my large one and the contact of her pussy against my cock, made it harden and I cursed inwardly. Geez! I needed a distraction. "I hope this met your criteria of wild sex?" I surprised myself, asking, when my gaze found hers again. Her eyes were hovering over my face before finally settling on mine with a lazy smile. "It really did," she breathed before her eyes slowly fluttered shut, her curly brown hair splayed against the bed, her face all relaxed and innocent. God! She was gorgeous. But before I could let my gaze drown in her face, I slid off of her and laid by the side, my eyelids snapping shut almost immediately. ~~~~~~~~~~~ "... home tonight." Ace's baritone voice snapped me out of my thoughts and I looked up sharply at him. Blinking, my eyebrows narrowed at him. We were inside my office and I summoned him to discuss the new tech project my tech company would be undertaking. We had managed to do that before my thoughts drifted to the happenings of last night— against my wishes, of course. She left before I woke up. No lady had ever done that. And I had no idea if I would ever see her again. Worst of all, her heavenly screams just wouldn't leave my head, coupled with the image of her fragile body. Dammit! A sharp snap of fingers dragged me out of my thoughts, and I was forced to stare into Ace's probing gaze. "What?" I asked a little too sharply. Ace backed away from the mahogany table a little, sinking further into the upholstered chair across from mine. "Easy, there, Tiger. I was asking if you would be coming home tonight." I rarely slept at my main building. I left it for Ace most times— for reasons best known to me— I spent most of my time in my condominium. I could guess why he was asking that. "Why?" My brows were still furrowed. "Wanna bring some chick over and pretend the house is yours?" He always did that with ladies who were easily bought over with wealth. I let him have his way anytime. He shrugged. "Not really. But I am bringing home someone. She's special." He threw me a wink. Speaking of special, I needed to do something to get a certain dewdrop out of my head and my system. With that resolve, I stood on my feet and dragged my suit jacket from the back of my chair. "You can have the house to yourself, Casanova," I muttered as I circled the door and headed for the door. "And close my office on your way out." With that, I sauntered out of the office, with only one place in mind— the club where I usually picked girls who had no knowledge of who I was. ~~~~~~~~~~~~ Just when I thought I was already getting in the mood. My cock was rock hard and my breath hitched with anticipation to slide inside someone. The brunette on top of me, clad in nothing but her lacy red panties, slid gently on my cock, moaning in anticipation. But just as my hand reached to part her panties and sink into her, a certain dewdrop screams and moans filtered into my ears. The moan of the brunette wasn't near as heavenly as it sounded. God! What the fuck was wrong with me? Hissing, I rolled her off me and got down from the bed. Without another glance, I left the hotel room, cursing myself for letting myself hang over a random girl. I wasn't thinking when I drove my Lamborghini out of the hotel premises that night. I had only registered where I was headed when my car pulled to a halt in the parking lot of my main building. Shit! I remembered Ace's plans of bringing a special girl over, but I shrugged it off. "This is my house." With long strides, I made my way across the lawn and let myself into the house. I knew the code, of course. The freezer in the kitchen was my next stop. I decided to be discreet in my movements so I would give him the privacy to take care of his business. I just needed to grab a plate of ice cream to cool my heated body, after which I would head to the shower and—" "Fuck! I'm so sorry!" My thoughts were interrupted by someone crashing into me. And when I looked down to see who was loitering around my kitchen, my gaze took in the dewy, pale green eyes that had been haunting me. "Dewdrop!" What the fuck was she doing here? Wait! Was she the special girl Ace mentioned? It fucking better not be!~XANDER~The words tumbled out of my lips before I could stop myself. For all I knew, I was sounding like a broken record. Because you don't just reject someone a few hours ago, only to tell them hours later that you care.That was a confusing move, especially when the rejection happened a few hours ago. Okay, tell me, at least, I made a little sense because the way Luna was staring at me— brows furrowed and eyes slightly dilated—made me feel like the stupidest person in the entire universe.Slowly, she turned, her hand falling away from the doorknob. She fixed her gaze on me, making my heart skip a bit. I didn't like that look.She didn't say anything. She just stood there, hands hanging loosely by her side as she stared on for seemingly endless seconds. With each second that dragged on, I couldn't help feeling that I was making enough sense— or any sense at all."What did you say?" She whispered. If I wasn't standing a little closer, I couldn't have heard her. I shrugged, straigh
~LUNA~Several seconds of staring at the food Ace passed to me a few seconds ago with a charming smile, my appetite remained nonexistent. Not that the food didn't look yummy. Trust me, the sight of the pasta, decorated with fried eggs, meatballs, and chicken was to die for. Even the aroma was enough to kick my stomach.Still, here I was, still glaring helplessly at the food with my hand desolately holding my chin."Can you fucking snap out of it, please?" Mia's hand snapped in front of me and I slowly turned to meet her gaze. Her lips were compressed together in obvious anger while her glare was fixed on me."What?" I asked, although I already knew what the problem was. Mia rolled her eyes and pushed the glass of juice Ace had previously passed to me closer. "You fucking know, bestie. And fucking stop playing fucking oblivious and fucking eat that food." "That was a lot of fucks." I couldn't help but let out a sad smile. "I was thinking the food itself would be fucking." I felt te
~XANDER~If there was anything I hated in this life, it was torture. But seriously, what did I think would happen after my ass rejected her? Would things be so easy peasy? And that my heart wouldn't constrict at the sight of her? That was a big fat lie, I knew.What's more pathetic? The fact that I had to actually leave the confines of my room just so I could see her face, even knowing I was probably the last person she wanted to see right now.I'd heard when her door whined open and the footsteps of her and her friend echoed in the hallway. That was when I kicked myself into full gear. Without thinking, I shuffled towards the door, despite knowing I was shirtless.I was already out of the door and descending the stairs in the next minute. That's when I took notice of my bare chest. Damn…And just like I expected, the look on her face was haunted. But the consoling part was that she spared me a glance, despite how much of an asshole I was.Then her black rose of a friend had to swing
~LUNA~I didn't know how Mia did it, or if this was part of what she was being taught in her department, but the next minute I was bouncing down the stairs with her trudging behind me, as if she was making sure I wouldn't disappear into my room if given the chance."Oh come on, stop walking as though that stomach of yours isn't growling." She said playfully, wrapping her hand playfully around my waist as we descended stair after stair.I threw her a playful glare. "Which part of your lecture did you practice on me?" I asked, mixing my glare with a quizzical gaze.I said I wouldn't go anywhere near that door. At least not today. Because despite what she said about mind over matter, I wasn't ready to face Xander, not today. Maybe tomorrow when everything would seem as though it was some nightmare.But Mia's coaxing and sweet talking worked like magic. It was as though she cast a spell on me or something of the sort."Let me guess, spell casting?" I added, humorlessly but the next minute
~LUNA~Just like Mia had predicted, Ace's large frame filled the doorway, his smile bright and gaze tender. "Are you girls done shopping? I ordered takeouts for lunch except you're still—" "No. We're done." Mia butt in, scampering away from the bed immediately, just as I was about to tell Ace that I wasn't sure Mia was. "We're totally interested in the takeout. We'll join you downstairs in a few minutes." She replied gleefully as she stood beside me at the door.My hard gaze was fixed on her, wondering how on Earth she could be so free with someone she had met just a few hours ago. That wasn't me. But leave Mia to be as daring as she could get.But that wasn't the only reason for my hard gaze. The last thing I wanted right now was to leave the confines of this room and risk having a face-off with Alex.'God, Luna. Call him Xander like everyone else!' I chided myself before Ace's voice snapped me back to reality."Okay. I'll be waiting for you girls downstairs." I turned to see his g
~LUNA~"Nah-uh!" I shook my head vigorously, waving my palm at Mia in firm refusal. "No way in hell am I giving that a third thought. I can't afford another heartbreak." I added when her brows furrowed in confusion, her gaze narrowing at my last words."Another heartbreak?" She echoed. "Are we talking about the heartbreak that asshole Eric dished out, or was there another one I didn't know about?" I continued staring at her with a blank expression, but was fully aware that I inadvertently made her aware of my first issue with Alex. Unless her mind didn't register the first words—"Wait..." She held up her hand. "What do you mean by third thought?" Her lips parted in a knowing grin as she started tugging on my hand that was splayed on my lap. "Come on, Luna. Spill!" Great! Good luck thinking that she didn't pick up on my first words. Of course, she did. If not, she would cease to be Mia— my hyperactive best friend.Now, how do I start narrating that I was actually calling Alex out to
~LUNA~The sight of him, alongside that annoying smirk of his, drove a pang of rage through my spine. I felt my whole body stiffen, hands curling into fists on their own accord. He smelled of spice, a fragrance I was hitherto addicted to, but now abhorred. I resisted the urge to puke as I stared h
~XANDER~A sardonic smile graced my lips after Andy dropped the bomb about who killed my parents. To be honest, I was a little surprised that they did, because finding a killer who wasn't famous in a town like Bayview was like looking for a needle in a haystack."I could still remember the face of
~LUNA~"I don't think you need any other fuck if that's the case." My eyes fluttered open at her words, my cheeks still burning with embarrassment. She was stifling a chuckle while scooping a spoonful of ice cream into her mouth, eyeing me mockingly.I resisted the urge to push her off that stool a
~LUNA~"You are not sharing this ice cream with me," Mia chanted for the thousand and one time since she got here and saw the big plate of ice cream. A soft laugh escaped my lips as I regarded her. It hadn't been long since she catwalked her way into this bar, and she was already fussing over ice
